Labs

What do I do if I cannot find a facility or laboratory in a searchable list in a question package or the Lab Results Section PRIOR TO RELEASE 2 (only follow these procedures from CURRENT – 9/21/18)?
What do I do if I cannot find a laboratory and/or facility in the provided list in the lab results section of THISIS?
Since our program is a cactus site, how should we handle the ACRF?
Will more information be captured in ELR and imported into THISIS?
Will we still need to QA Labs? If so, how?
I could not add a negative HIV lab to a syphilis case nor could I add a negative syphilis lab to an HIV case. What should I do?
I cannot create a patient record with negative labs from a team screening, which could be vital for future references. THISIS requires a positive disease code to create patient record. Could “None” be added in the disease box when creating a new record?
We noticed that the Biomat feed is not coming to our regular ELR feed from you all. Is there any possibility that Biomat reports can be included in the ELR- HL7 feed that we get from you all right now?
When receiving faxed and mailed chlamydia/gonorrhea STD-27s from providers, they often write the test performed, specimen type, and result. In the event that the associated lab was not imported and the provider did not send in a copy of the lab report, should we be creating a lab from this information if we don’t know which lab was used? How should these morbidities be processed?
Processing of labs should be happening at midnight, why are labs showing up at noon?
Labs triggering Field Follow-Up but cannot get out of the Field Follow-Up Needed workflow.
When submitting request for lab deletions please send the party ID and Event ID
If there are labs we received during the downtime that have still not been imported into THISIS, should we just manually enter them?
Do we need to send a list of labs that are still not in there (like is this a known issue or not?)
Negative Labs are creating two events
How do I enter in a provider reported lab?
